    You can dance, you can jive, having the time of your life Morristown — ABBAmania, the world’s number one touring ABBA tribute concert, comes to The Community Theatre at Mayo Center for the Performing Arts on Wednesday, Nov. 11, at 8 p.m. Tickets are $32-$57 ABBAmania formed in 1999 and the show has been selling out theatres and concert halls internationally ever since. This show has toured the world in its quest to bring the music of the Swedish supergroup to their millions of fans, old and new. ABBA’s timeless songs were written to be enjoyed live and ABBAmania gives you exactly that - two hours of uplifting, dance inducing and sometimes heart-breaking songs, fully live with fantastic staging, lighting and effects. The show perfectly recreates ABBA’s sound. ABBAmania is not only for lifelong, diehard ABBA fans but the new generation of fans, who never had the opportunity to see ABBA live. Hit after hit includes ‘Dancing Queen’, ‘Waterloo’, ‘Mamma Mia’, ‘The Winner Takes it All’, ‘Super Trouper’, ‘Fernando’, ‘Take A Chance On Me’ and many more that continue to fill dance floors worldwide. Agnetha, Bjorn, Benny and Anni-Frid, collectively known as ABBA, dominated the charts for nearly 10 years and enjoyed nine number one hits in the UK. At their height, they became Sweden’s highest export earners, amazingly, outselling Volvo cars. In the early 1980s, they decided to go their separate ways, but their music lives on. ‘ABBA Gold’ is one of the biggest selling albums ever.
